Scratch

Hi am trying to make a simple shootout game to demonstrate the if else block to students.  Can you tell me why it still displays 'miss' when the ball hits the goal.
This is a segmant of the code I am using:

[blocks]
<when[space  ]key pressed>
<if><touching[goal]
<say[ goal ]for( 2 )secs>
<else> <say[ miss ]for( 2 )secs>

[/blocks]

Thanks in advance
